First Look Series S2 EPS 4 | GG (SNSD) - Into The New World, Gee, I Got A Boy, & Lil Touch

[@caitlinbensonn]

1:46 Is where you can find all the important information about the series. As stated in every video I'm not taking requests because it gets overwhelming for me. I'm sure I'll get to your favorite songs eventually. The music isn't going anywhere. I only do 4 videos because of copyright. Also there's no promises about getting into any of the groups I reacted to in the series. This is literally just me checking them out with no strings attached. Thank you.

[@MYot4aespa]

you should react to their leader TAEYEON she’s promoting as solo right now and also other members but it’s a MUST to react to their leader first lol you won’t get disappointed knowing this group 🙌🏻

[@MiltonLeite10]

thanks so much for that, I loved your reaction, and what you said about gee is so adorable, and it's exactly the way I felt in the past when I heard it for the first time (my first kpop song in 2012) it's colorful, fun, and happy, and I like you just enjoy the moment and not judge it

"Welcome to my show it's a revolution, this is my Girls' Generation" You've finally made it to the legends, the trendsetters, the nation's girl group, one of the reasons why K-Pop is what is it today. They've been around since 2007 and boy have they changed the game ever since! Into The New World is Korea' second national anthem, it's been used in pride parade, in political rallies, and even when Koreans took to the street to demand their former president step down. It's that song and the lyrics are really inspirational! And the reason why you noticed they really were nailing the choreography is because they kept practicing it for a whole year before they debuted. It's also a rite of passage for upcoming girlsgroups, pretty much every one train dancing to that song. The girls debuted at a time where girlsgroups were seen as a joke, got to work and showed the world girlsgroups could perform just like the dudes, sell as many albums as them, and even so much more! We have to thanks them for many things we know of today, like photocards, fancams and even the center position! The girls are still together, even if they're now a 8 members group (Jessica left in 2014 for... reasons). Their last full comeback was in 2017 and they've been on hiatus ever since as the members all wanted to focus on their solo activities. But as we are nearing their 15th year anniversary next August, all SONEs hope for a comeback soon. They have 2 sub-units ; TTS and Oh!GG you took a look at. Oh!GG is basically all the members still under SM, as Tiffany, Sooyoung and Seohyun decided not to renew their contracts with the company, but are still GG members. There's so much more to say about the girls, but then i'd be here all day. I thank you for giving our girls a listen, and I hope you'll want to discover more about them.

When you're second generation of kpop, you know that the true standard of girl groups starts here. Any gender, any concept, Vocals, rap, dance, visual, performance, models, acting. Whatever they say GG is the true standard. #GG4EVA

[@markmark9238]

Girls' Generation don't rap a lot, and I think 2ne1 is the standard for Rap. (SONE HERE BUT LET'S BE FAIR) Edit : Add their personality too! Their personality is the best and the humor😂

[@swagwanhyung8413]

@@markmark9238 i agree… SONE here too! Both groups are talented but let’s agree SNSD has the dance (arguable outside their own choreos bc of Minzy but title songs & group choreo? Snsd has it) and vocals while 2ne1 has the rap. They specialize in different styles/concepts and different genres too. Both groups are concept queens.Also… am i the only one who thinks that 2nd gen groups are all so unique that no one is better than the other but they’re the best in what genre they does best? SNSD, T-ara, KARA, 4minute, Wonder Girls, 2ne1, BEG, F(x), Miss A, Girls’ Day, Apink, Afterschool, Secret are all amazing!

[@johnmutterswords5777]

I love when people go back to discover Girls Generation’s beginnings, thinking they won’t be able to point out Taeyeon, but then they actually do when they compliment her voice without even knowing it!

Girl group trainees basically study SNSD/Girls Generation like a textbook. They became the model that every company tried to replicate.

Hi Caitlin! Just to let you know Girls Generation has not disbanded, they acutally recently reunited as a group on a show to celebrate their anniversary. Although they haven't released any music together recently, they have stated that they are all wanting to focus on their individual careers for now and hope to make music together again soon. Wish you'd react to more of GG as they have done various genres and every song is amazing! Loved the reaction!!

Girl's Generation was and is the biggest kpop girl group. They are the blue print for modern girl groups since they debuted when kpop as we know today was just emerging, no one knew how to play the game for ggs. The one and only Korea's NGG. Each member is a legend to k-industry and are still active. The impact and influence they had to what kpop is today, their songs are classics to koreans. Literal idols of idols.

[@kimbapkidding4063]

Girls' Generation is the Nation's Girl Group. SNSD has 9 members, one member left SNSD and SM in 2014. In 2017, three members left SM but remained as SNSD members. So, SM made a unit for the rest of members who still in SM. Oh!GG is their unit name. They didn't comeback since lil touch which made me sad. Now all of 9 members are working as solo artists, release solo songs and do acting (hope they will comeback as group). SNSD is like a big milestone of KPOP. Their songs really slap. SNSD is the first kpop group I know. They turned me into SM artists stan lol. The only group that i stan not in SM is SEVENTEEN, the rest are SM groups. I am a hardcore NCTzen and really enjoy your reaction videos. Can't believe you reacted to SNSD. Hope you dig into SNSD more in future. AND YES HE IS MINHO ^o^

[@stevep1227]

They return as a group in August 2022 to celebrate their fifteenth year together. They got together regularly over their five-year hiatus, they just didn't record music as a group. Steve P.

[@igs.0102]

Into the New World is kind of compulsory for trainees to rehearse with this song. You're right when you said it's hard to perform this live, but back in the days, SNSD used to perform live with this, no backing track, just pure vocals, and they killed it.

[@erikpaolo22]

In all my years of being a SONE (Girls' Generation's fandom), I did not see a reaction video from someone breaking into Girls' Generation that is as fun to watch as yours. And I am really happy as to how appreciative you are of the their music and how they have grown over the years, so a big, big, big THANK YOU for that. I also don't usually comment on reaction videos, so for me to do this is a big deal for me. The biggest part about your reaction video was me laughing my ass off, especially when I saw that you were going to react to I Got A Boy. I was like, "Oh boy, she's going to be in a ride of her life!". And you did. Many people get totally thrown off by the switch-ups and whatnot, and seeing that IGAB was in 2013, it was one of the major breakthroughs in K-pop. Slight correction though: Girls' Generation debuted in 2007, so Into the New World was in 2007. SM just uploaded the video in 2011. And yes, it being such an iconic song even today that it is a standard K-pop song that girl groups have trained with and have made covers of it is a dream come true for the producers and songwriters. And yes, that was Minho from SHINee in Gee. And also check out the Japanese version of Gee. Minho's back in it as well. Fun fact: In the Japanese version of SHINee's Replay, Girls' Generation's YoonA is there. And in Sherlock, former Girls' Generation member Jessica was there was well. And while I'm on the subject of cross-overs, another Girls' Generation subunit called TaeTiSeo's debut in 2012 Twinkle featured members of EXO in the MV: Kai, Sehun, Baekhyun, and Chanyeol. BTW, Oh-GG! is another subunit as well aside from TaeTiSeo. It is comprised of Girls' Generation members who are still signed with SM Entertainment. Three members left the company in 2017 and went on to sign with other entertainment companies, but they are still on the active roster of the group. So yeah, they're not disbanded, only on hiatus as a group. Each member is still active with their individual activities in music, acting, endorsements, etc. I hope you get to react to the individual music content that each member had put up as well, just so that you can see how much they progressed from their group stuff. You could most likely start with Taeyeon's, as she has the most individual music content. And she is versatile as heck. Pity that the copyright issues would prevent you from reacting to other group MVs, but I would highly recommend as well "Tell Me Your Wish", "Run Devil Run", "You Think", and "All Night", for starters.

[@odgykins]

Also really interesting fact about I Got A Boy: When Jessica says “let’s bring it back to 140” she is both referring to the tempo (the song switches back to 140bpm) and to the time in the song when you first hear this section of the song which is at 1 minute and 40 seconds

INFO DUMP COMMENT IN CASE UR INTERESTED 😅😅 - Into the New World was actually released in 2007, but it got re-uploaded to SM's channel in 2011 - 8:42 "I wonder how old they were here": 16-18 (international age), its funny that for such a big group their age gap is only 2 years, most members r the same age - 10:28 "is that Taeyeon?" yup, that's Taeyeon on-screen, and the high note is actually her and Jessica (the 2 main vocalists) harmonizing - Yes, that was Minho, our Gee boy and girls' generation's baby bro.. u probably had ppl commenting this on the "hate that" video, but snsd and shinee have a rlly cute sibling-like relationship - i love ur reaction to IGAB 😂 funfact: this song was on billboard's list of most influential songs of the past decade, being a precursor for genre switch-ups in kpop (it was one of the very few kpop songs on the list) - Oh!GG is the name of the subunit btw, which is why there's only 5 of them - lastly, they are not disbanded but have been on hiatus for A WHILE.. they all have thriving solo careers in music and acting tho and r still very close and hang out often.. they hv said they want to cb eventually but considering everyone's scheds and them being in 4 diff companies now it's difficult to find the timing (their words) okay sorry for the long comment, i was dying with ur entire reaction lol i hope u get to more snsd eventually, but regardless I'm gonna keep watching ur reactions bc you are so much fun to watch 💗

[@rachmad_jenss]

Hey Caitlin, thanks for reacting to Nation's Girl Group, the Legends, and Only Girls' Generation. They are not disbanded. Actually, they are initiated of the 'not disbanded group' despite some members aren't in the same agency anymore. Originally, Girls' Generation have 9 members but in 2014 Jessica left. So, they continued with 8 members. After the member contract ended with SM in 2017, 3 of them decided to leave SM but they are still in Girls' Generation and the rest 5 are still in SM and made the sub-unit, Oh!GG with Lil' Touch as their debut single. They are a versatile group, always bringing new energy in every comeback. It feels like reacting to four of their MV isn't enough to fully know what they're trying to bring or why/how they become LEGENDS until now. So, I recommend you to react more to their music haha :). I guarantee it's worth your time. Into The New World is their debut MV that was released in 2007, but it's moved to SM's new channel in 2011. So, all SM videos, including MVs from before 2010 in their old channel are moved to the newer one in 2011. It's a known 'must' song for the female trainees. Gee is the National Anthem of Kpop that has massive influence in various industries, not just entertainment but also fashion. After Gee was released, the colorful jeans became a trend, every young person there must have had colorful jeans and became a 'must' outfit for young people there at that time. It's a timeless classic Kpop song. I got a boy is the most ICONIC Kpop song. It's the song that brings into vogue a dance cover culture in Kpop. The MV won the award for Video of the Year at the first KZbin Music Awards in 2013, which generated much attention for beating other popular nominees like Justin Bieber and Psy despite the fact that the group was considered lesser-known to the Western audience at the time. Fun fact, when Jessica said "Let's bring back to 140", it's not just the 140 tempo but also it's the song part that was first introduced at 1:40. And same, Lil' Touch is my fav of the four. I can't tell the reason but it's so endearing hearing it. Lastly, I want to recommend you to react to the other SM's group music, like TVXQ, Super Junior, and f(x). And check their sub-unit and solo stuff, it's noteworthy. Thanks :)

[@DarkNova_2804]

Fun fact Caitlin, your correct the guy in the Gee music video is indeed Minho of Shinee. And the song lyrics pretty talk the girls falling in love and toy story-ing it up after Minho closes store for the night.

[@animecookies8784]

Snsd are the reason I got into kpop back in Gee era. They are legendary and their performances are also iconic. Also, yes that was Minho. SNSD also never disbanded. The girls are extremely close with each other like family and are supporting each other's solo projects. We hope they get back together in 2022 with an album. The group only lost one member back in 2014 due to controversy between Jessica and the company. But the remaining 8 girls are still in the group. It was heartbreaking at the time when Jessica was gone and their concert Tokyo Dome shows all the girls' emotion. But all the girls are living successful careers at the moment!

[@aayushi1381]

Welcome to the Sone family! ITNW is also known as an anthem for empowerment, particularly female empowerment. It's still used often in South Korea today in marches/protests; the choreo is indeed known as some of the hardest choreo --- there's a reason why they're the nation's girl group! Also Oh!GG is a sub-unit of SNSD/GG (the other main one I encourage you to check out is TaeTiSeo /SNSD-TTS) Please do check out the other work and 100% their live performances, I promise you won't be disappointed!!! Oh and SNSD/GG is "officially" on hiatus. Oh!GG is still under SM, but four of the original nine (known by the fandom as OT9) are doing other projects/things under other companies and labels. They recently reunited (eight of them / OT8) and people were losing their minds.

[@kayegijapon9175]

Lil touch is actually a song by the sub-unit within the group. Currently the girls in that song are the girls who are still under SM entertainment. No the only officiall member who left the group was Jessica. While the others had change agency after their contract came to an end but they are still part of the group. SNSD is such a big succesfull group that SM cannot afford to stop them. Though they haven’t performed together in a long time because of their separate busy schedule the girls still see each other and go on coffee dates and birthday dates.

Girls Generation, the Nations Girl Group 💯. Thank you so much for reacting to them caitlin, i know you have a lot of groups to react to so im really thankful that you gave them time ❤️❤️

My Childhood 😭 2nd Generation is literally called "THE GOLDEN GENERATION".

[@taq170321]

I'm late to this but the mentions of Into The New World being classic - it is a classic in Korea, a classic also used at protests/events!

[@lovelydigna6087]

Am I the only SONE who was overwhelmed of how crazy she reacts to each video? 😂😂 I also remembered how I reacted the first time I saw the mvs. 😂😂 Ayo GG!!

[@Enjouchi]

A little fun thing about Gee is that when they made the Japanese mv years later, it was basically a sequel to this one where the girls open up a store across the street minho comes in to visit them... Haha

[@hde9671]

3 members left SM in the end of 2017 but they are still GG members. They did not disband and still a group with 8 members^^ They attended a famous Korean program You Quiz On The Block this year^^

[@kayegijapon9175]

SNSD or Girls Generation is the Nations Girl group. People of South Korea gave that title to them. SNSD is the textbook of what girl groups should be. Their debut song Into the new world is basically the national anthem for all gg. All Girl group knows this song. All of the girls are currently promoting in different areas. Acting, hosting, singing etc.

[@JuberPinkPleasure]

the way i screamed when i saw this. caitlin benson watching SNSD AND IM HERE FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!

[@HanQ28]

If you check out their subunit TTS, you can see EXO members appearing in one of their MVs too lol Girls Generation is from the same company as Shinee/EXO/f(x)/Red Velvet/NCT/Aespa, so they occasionally would make cameos in each other’s MVs and stages. That’s SM Family for you🥳

[@leniniza_]

Literally had flashbacks of my childhood when you were watching the early videos ahhhh!!! So happy you love SNSD's music! I hope you can check more of their music in the future (even in private, although of course we love watching your reactions too) 💛💛💛

[@demag2881]

You have to listen you think, catch me if you can, devil run devil, the boys, and party!! These ones are fascinating 🤗💫 also there is unit grop from them, called tts by 3 vocalists (taeyeon, Tiffany, sahyeon). Their song is great too! Especially twinkle and holler :)

[@wcchudds1840]

‘Into the new world’ It used to be one of my favorite songs when I was on the 6th grade of elementary school. Thank you for introducing this song worldwide. :)

[@leabelpedrosa4602]

Always a proud fan of girls generation here. They literally set the standard of k-pop for me. Beauty, stage presence and talent. They got it all, plus all of them are still in their own limelight now, shining brightly!. ❤️❤️❤️

[@marvinmaputi444]

The views grow fast. The power GG holds. Hello Caitlyn, sending love from the Philippines. Love your genuine reactions. Stay happy 💛

[@nnonxy4172]

I love this!!! Keep react SNSD they are legends!!

[@lhjbm3050]

SNSD' Into The New World song literally brought me into this KPOP WORLD at the age of 7!

[@Sophie-bc4cr]

Into the new world is such a legendary song in the Kpop industry, and its one of my favorites. I highly suggest you check out the ballad version that they performed on tour (even if it in your own time) because it's mind blowing.

[@soneboy4eva519]

Cait, u making me cry. happy tears of course. i love you so much for this. and also i love you for your honesty. you the best Kpop reactor that i trust and watch and makes me genuinely happy. thank you so much for this video and i hope you will react to more of Girls' Generation's work. again, thank you so much. i wish you all the best in the future.

[@fildahanna4178]

[@aeri4023]

You should watch them sing live because even if the choreography is hard, they can sing stable. 🔥

[@jessieorode]

As soon as ITNW started I got all teary. Ahhh the nostalgia. I miss the oldies Gee will forever have a place in my heart. The song that got me into Kpop

[@demitwice]

I just wanted to say that i love your reactions, you're enthusiastic but so honest and i appreciate it a lot ❣️

[@aerynkelly]

I knew I Got a Boy would slay you, that song is beyond incredible

[@darkcloud91]

This is the song that broke the mold for every future KPOP song. It allowed future producers to be more daring.

[@fantasticelastic]

into the new world is just iconic i feel nostalgic every time i hear that song

[@lizzaperez2223]

You were right, it was definitely Choi Minho from Shinee on that Gee music video. If you watch Twinkle by TTS (which is a sub-unit of Girls' Generation with Taeyeon, Tiffany, and Seohyun in it), you'll see another cameo of SM artists there, I'm not gonna spoil who they were but it's definitely one of your favorite boy groups I'd say. The song also slaps so you really need to check it out if you have time :)

[@dorio6363]

bring the boys out. GIRLS GENERA-

[@HinataJD]

god i remember staying up to watch i got a boy and being completely shocked considering it was my first comeback with snsd TT. i got a boy is actually so iconic, still not sure if i love it lmao but definitely nostalgic. i REALLY recommend checking out their live performance of it at the "2013 Dream Concert". it use to be one of the largest kpop concerts in korea where fandoms got to showcase their huge support and love for their favorite groups. you hear the fans roaring the whole song from start to finish, you literally cannot hear the girls singing, one of the most iconic performances. everyone loved girls generation
